Imagination is the 1973 album by the iconic Gladys Knight And The Pips and released by Buddah Records.

Any doubts that there could be life after Motown for Gladys Knight & The Pips were quickly put to rest by the amazing success of their first Buddah album, Imagination.

Imagination soared to #1 on Billboard’s R&B Albums Chart and boasted no less than three #1 R&B hits: the infectious “Midnight Train To Georgia,” the funky “I’ve Got To Use My Imagination” and the sentimental ballad “Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me.”

Meanwhile, the ballad “Perfect Love,” the gritty “Window Raisin’ Granny” and a spirited cover of Johnny Nash’s 1972 hit “I Can See Clearly Now” can be found on this 40th anniversary edition of Imagination.

Also included is an instrumental version of “Midnight Train To Georgia” as well as the 7” single versions of that favourite and its B-side “Window Raisin’ Granny.”

No less than 40 years have passed since the release of the original Imagination LP, and as this reissue demonstrates, time hasn’t made these 1973 performances any less compelling or definitive.
